$1 Trillion for a U.S. Nuclear Buildup | The New York Times

A ltter to the New York Times edtorial board begins:

Your assertion (NYT July 29, 2017) that “since setting off the nuclear age, America has been the major, if imperfect, force behind the restraints that exist” ignores the sorry history of the United States’ provocative expansion of its nuclear arms and delivery system programs as well as its rejection of numerous offers from Russia, China and even North Korea to ratchet down the hostilities.

The letter is by Alice Slater, who serves on the coordinating committee of World Beyond War.
